Fun Dress!

Size worn: 10

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Wedding

I wore this dress for a June wedding and had so much fun in it! I normally wear a size 10 so I ordered an 8 and a 10 based upon the suggestion to order down a size. While the 8 fit for the most part, it was too tight in my chest area. I am a D-cup so my larger chest size just didn't quite fit in the 8. The 10 fit great in the chest area but then I found it to be a little loose in the waist. The 10 still fit ok and I loved wearing the dress. It was comfortable and I loved the pockets! It is more of a bluish purple though, than a true purple. I was worried about the hot weather in the dress, but it was surprisingly not bad at all. I received several compliments on the dress and I would definitely recommend it, it's one of my favorite rentals to date!

Such a gorgeous dress!!!!

This dress is so beautiful in person! The photos really don't do justice to the lace pattern. I am a 0-2, depending on how fitted something is in the hips, so I rented both the 0 and the 2 in this dress. Honestly, I didn't even try the 2 on because the 0 fit almost flawlessly. It was a bit large through the shoulder area (slipped down a few times) and I had to wear a backless bra with it, but it was such a comfortable dress. And it has pockets!
The color is kind of in between purple and blue. I accessorized it with nude pumps and mother-of-pearl drop earrings and an updo, but I think it would look equally stunning with gold accessories. I'm so in love with this dress, I'm trying to track it down so I can purchase it!

Perfect for a winery wedding! Beautiful color and fit.

This dress fit like a glove. I sized down based on other reviews, and that was a good idea. The 4 was a tiny bit too loose up top, so I went with the 2. I'm small up top and larger on the bottom, and it was SO flattering. I got compliments all night!

This dress was absolutely perfect for the wedding I attended. It fit like a glove and was very comfortable. The only thing was that I felt it was a bit short and had trouble dancing! Other than that--I LOVED it and would highly recommend it.

Perfect dress for a summer wedding!

Size worn: 6

Overall fit: True to Size

This was my first and by far my most favorite RTR dress! The color is much more vibrant in person....it was gorgeous and I felt beautiful in the dress. I've rented a few more Shoshanna dresses since this one and I tend to notice that they run tight in the chest. I wasn't able to wear a bra with this dress because of how tight it was in the chest/upper rib cage. If I sized up, it would have been to large in the waist. Regardless, I hope to rent this dress again someday. Beautiful!!

Perfect cocktail dress for a summer wedding!

Size worn: 12

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Wedding

I rented this dress for my friend's June wedding. Cocktail attire was required so I wanted something nicer than I could afford to purchase myself and this definitely fit the bill! It was fun and summer-y but still fancy enough to fit right in at the Harkness Eolia Mansion in CT.
The sleeves felt a bit tight at times but that's just because my upper arms have lot a bit of their tone & I was not diligent enough to exercise more before the wedding! :) But it didn't even bother me and I was still able to dance the night away in comfort.
The lining is great - the dress never once felt itchy. And it appeared new - the lace was worn or frayed at all.

Perfect for an outdoor summer wedding!

I LOVED this dress! I wish I could have kept it! It fit perfect to size, was a beautiful purple/blue color, and was great for the outdoor wedding I attended. I paired this dress with a thick chunky necklace, matching earrings and nude heels. I got so many compliments all night and felt great! The pockets kind of poofed out, but that didn't really bother me. Overall a great dress that I would highly recommend!

So pretty

Such a great dress! Wore to a rehearsal dinner party. Already thinking of when I might rent it again. it was quite fitted at the waist - but fit. I might have liked to try on a 2 too but only ordered the 0. The lace around the neck had a hard time laying flat and not tucking under, I fixed it with a little ironing. I thought it looked best with no necklace given the lacey neckline. LOVED having the pockets!

We went to a fancy wedding right outside of NYC. This was the perfect dress for the occasion.

The dress arrived early and fit perfectly but I wasn't sure how I felt about the dress initially. The lace at the neckline of the dress appeared quite "worn". Without finding just the right jewelry to go with the dress I likely would not have worn the dress at all. I would rent from rent the runway again but I would likely try to steer clear of lace dresses. However paired with the right accessories the lace was not even noticeable. Great color! Recommend gold accessories and nude heels/clutch. Got many compliments. Some guy at the wedding told me I was second best dressed at the wedding..second to the bride :).

Beautiful dress for a fun night in Las Vegas

I wore this to the Academy of Country Music Awards in Las Vegas. I wanted something classy for the event as it was for work and I was entertaining customers. I like that it is off the shoulders a bit and the lace overlay is beautiful. I am a regular size 8 and the 8 fit fine. I carry my extra weight in my tummy and this dress accommodated it nicely. This dress would be a good choice for a wedding as well.

Everyone kept complimenting me on the fit

Overall great dress in an awesome color. It's a little tight in the rib chest area. While I hardly ever go without a bra, I had to for this dress. But the bra liner made it so that you couldn't tell the difference.

Great dress!

I wore this dress for an outdoor wedding and it was perfect! I got both the four and the two. I went with the four because the cap sleeves were a bit tight on the two. Other than that both sizes fit perfectly.

Felt like a million bucks!

This dress was absolutely perfect. Rented for a wedding, which my boyfriend was standing in. Wanted to look put together, without being over the top.
This dress was incredibly comfortable and easy to wear. I can't tell you how many compliments it got. I'm 34DD-DDD so it was a little tight across the bust. Ended up ditching my bra just after the ceremony to get a little more breathing room.
Length was great. Long enough to still dance and sit comfortably.
Pared with chandelier earrings and nude heels.
I would wear this everyday. :)

I received a lot of compliments and felt very confident in this dress!

This dress fit me perfectly! The color is much more purple than it appears online. I had to steam the lace around the color to get it to hold it's shape. It was obvious that the dress had been worn frequently because lace shows wear easily, but once it was on it was hardly noticeable. I wish I didn't have to return this dress!

Absolutely gorgeous dress!

I wore this to my friend's wedding in May. I ordered the 0 and 2 and both fit, but I liked that the 0 was a little more fitted around the waist. The dress was a little short for my personal preference (I would have liked it about 2-3 inches longer), but it was so gorgeous that the length didnt bother me. The color was a beautiful, bright purple with a tan underlay that helped make the lace details stand out. I loved that I could wear a regular bra with it and the pockets were great for holding my phone and camera while dancing. I paired the dress with gold earrings and rose gold sparkly heels from Aldo. I truly didnt want to return the dress when my rental was over-if I could afford to own this dress I would! I definitely would rent this again!

I absolutely loved the color and lace. The fit was flattering, perfect for my engagement pictures.

I have an hour glass figure, so finding a dress can be difficult (Chest-Size 6, Waist- Size 4, Hips- Size 8). Both the 4 and the 6 fit, but I found the 4 more flattering although it was slightly tight in the chest area. The size 6 lace was a little more worn than the 4, but the right pocket of the 4 kept turning out showing the nude inside coloring. Overall I loved this dress, you can wear a regular bra and it is comfortable!

Loved everything about this dress!

I'm short - even petities usually have to be hemmed - so I was a little anxious about renting any kind of dress. But this one was perfect - the length was great, the fit was exactly right, and the color was amazing. Oh, and pockets. Pockets are always awesome. I got so many compliments from everyone, and it was comfortable and easy to wear. The only possible complaint is that the way the neckline/straps fit me, it worked better "off the shoulder", but I just safety pinned my bra straps to the lining of the straps and problem solved! I paired it with pewter shoes and dark pewter/dark bronze jewelry, which was perfect.

Pretty and classy, loved it!

I wore this to a summer wedding and absolutely loved it. The color is beautiful the shape was very flattering. There isn't any give to the fabric, so if you're between sizes, I'd go up. Also, if you're on the tall side beware - once I sat down it was borderline inappropriate!

It was the perfect dress to wear to my best friends wedding in New Orleans!!

The dress fit me perfect and I honestly had no problems with it. The sleeves didn't fall down like others had suggested . I received so many compliments and the dress looked amazing in pictures. The color is in between a blue and purple.

Gorgeous color, amazing fit - especially for us ladies with curves!

LOVED this dress. Got compliments on it all night. It was super comfortable, which is #1 for me in a wedding dress. The color is stunning, perfect for a Fall wedding, or anytime really. I went back and forth on adding a belt or not, but ended up not doing one. I think it works great either way.
